Hi all,

Just got a little question about how detailed is casualities summary at the end of scenarios? Im thinking about getting the game but I've absolutely hated the lack of information in these summaries in Arnhem and Aegean pieces. Is it any better now? (You know what I mean: not generic killed AFVs: 55, but something like killed: 15 Panthers, 20 Tigers, 5 Stugs ect.). Thanks for any response:). Really hoping they've improved that.

If you are really keen on this information you can extract it for the expenditure of a little time and effort. You can trawl through both sides surviving units, recording their strengths (or just tank strength if that is all that is important - this is a much smaller job than recording everything). Comparing this to the 'at start' or editor strengths should give a rough idea of losses by type and by unit (though not who obtained the kills).

As part of testing I've done this (and monitoring supply arrivals and dispatches over time) for a number of scenarios, and it is a good way of familiarising yourself with the equipment/unit distributions and vulnerabilities (albeit those defined by player/AI choices, rather than strictly unit weakness/strength).
